I have pretty much the same card and CFS3 is running decend while not excellent.
An extra RAM stick does help either, the more the better.

Have an FX5200. CFS3 runs good but it will do better with a fast CPU.

128mb RAM? - Get 512 or ideally 1024mb ;)
The FX 5200 is certainly a quantum leap compared to a tnt2!
You don't say what CPU your running, a reasonable graphics card will still perform poorly (in CFS3) with a slow CPU.
